Re: Registration 2011

Events proceed...

Philadelphia and Smoky Mountain both filled to initial capacity over the weekend.

9 more Regionals are within 1-5 spots of reaching initial capacity:
  • (1) FLR, KC
  • (2) AZ
  • (3) MD, SC, Toronto East, OH
  • (4) Toronto West
  • (5) NJ
18 Regionals are already at initial capacity:
BAE, San Diego, WPI, Pittsburgh, NYC, Sacramento, Boilermaker, Oklahoma, Los Angeles, Midwest, LI, Silicon Valley, Connecticut, Smoky Mountain, Colorado, Boston, Virginia, Philadelphia.

6 Regionals went into stealth mode before the 2nd event registration opening:
  1. DC
  2. Florida
  3. Alamo
  4. Dallas
  5. Lone Star
  6. Seattle Cascade
plus the always enigmatic MI District events.


P.S.
10 Regionals have gone beyond initial capacity numbers by adding rookies to the team list, so some of the reserved slots are already partially showing in spots.

P.P.S.
# registered teams passed the number that played in 2009 (1677) around 4:30pm.

Unrestricted registration opens Thursday, so we should see more multiples then, but it'll all be blocked from us by wait lists if Regional Directors don't begin clearing them soon. I wonder how much the wait lists discourage subsequent registrations?
